Cottage near the ocean

Really beautiful Cape Cod like cottage near a black sand beach and walking trail which is a great stop along the ring road. Nice breakfast, friendly staff and at least one hotel cat. Very beautiful sunny day while there.

This place is a gem. The hotel is spotless, right on the ocean, and has a lovely little restaurant with sunset views that is very good. They were able to accommodate gluten free diets, which is important for me as someone with celiac. And the views were incredible.
